The Halászbástya or Fisherman's Bastion is one of the most recognisable monuments in Budapest, and a major tourist attraction, not just for the beauty of the space itself, but for the views of the city it affords. 

As such, it's buzzing with people, and where there are tourists, there are local musicians, street vendors and so on. This recording captures multiple accordion players playing traditional tunes among the crowds of tourists. 

Recorded by Cities and Memory.
